Morocco edges Scotland 1-0 in Boston, stays perfect in 2026 qualifiers

Morocco needed every minute to grind out a 1-0 win over Scotland in Boston, staying perfect in 2026 World Cup qualifying with a performance that showcased dominance but lacked the cutting edge required to deliver a more emphatic result. The Atlas controlled the match from start to finish, accumulating 72% possession and registering 21 shots to Scotland’s six. Yet it was only in the 38th minute that midfielder Azzedine Ounahi broke the deadlock, slotting home after a quick counterattack that exposed Scotland’s high line.
